Dear Viewer,
A few words about us and our vision we try to become reality with your help:
Plastic Fischer was founded by three friends from Cologne, Germany, after we witnessed the plastic pollution through rivers in Vietnam in December 2018.
Realizing first-hand how much waste is entering the oceans around the clock was the moment we decided to take action ourselves.
Locally built solutions. No high-tech. No priority on a fancy design.
Impact before everything.
Without detailed knowledge about rivers or the waste economy, but highly motivated to find a solution for a global issue within a developing country, Karsten and Moritz flew to Indonesia in June last year.
Our starting point was the most polluted rivers of the world: The Citarum River, in Bandung, West Java.
Moritz invented the TrashBoom. A simple, low-cost, but extremely effective swimming barrier to stop the vast majority of waste floating in the river.
They are not just a concept. They work! For the water and every creature on this planet!
While capturing a lot of plastic, we understood that by collecting waste from the rivers we are fighting symptoms, caused by a lack of education.
Do you remember? Not too long ago, maybe five years back, just a few people questioned the use of the plastic shopping bag. But somehow, we have been educated because someone told us: Use a reusable bag or mask. Avoid the plastic straw.
That needs to happen in Indonesia, the world's second-biggest pollutant.
A beautiful country with the most friendly people you will meet.
Allow us to deploy more TrashBoom systems and host plastic workshops for the community.
With this campaign, we want to establish our idea of making a change in Indonesia
Thank you for helping and caring, so that your kids and grandkids will have those beautiful oceans to swim in as we had as a kid.
Karsten, Moritz and Georg ♥
